Girlfriend says Karachi is pretty crazy - fires burning, people rushing to get off the streets as others with guns and sticks run riot. Not good. |

After two suicide bomb attacks you've got to question how much effort Musharraf was putting into ensuring her safety. |

As I understand it, politicians running for office in Pakistan don't get security details. Unfortunate that Musharraf didn't provide the same security for her that he does for himself. Not sure that he isn't secretly okay with this. This is what the modern world is up against. |

I guess the big question will be whether the elections will go ahead in January and what will happen to her party without her. |

The New York Times story. To see her coffin is very surreal. I think it's impossible to understand the ramifications of her murder yet. |

Who to believe? Do we have any real choice but to continue supporting Musharraf? Who better? Imperfect, to be sure, but still, as far as one can tell, working with us. |

Rightly or wrongly, there will be even more Pakistanis who will blame the US for "propping up" Musharaf to the detriment of their political heros, even when neither Musharaf nor the US is directly responsible for the misfortune of their political heros.

I don't think Musharraf was behind this, but his comment on the "security lapse" is troubling. Sounds like he could have blood on his hands based on his lack of involvement. |
